Configuration Reference
Questi contenuti non sono ancora disponibili nella tua lingua.
The following reference covers all supported configuration options in Astro. To learn more about configuring Astro, read our guide on Configuring Astro.
Top-Level Options
Section titled Top-Level OptionsType: string
Your final, deployed URL. Astro uses this full URL to generate your sitemap and canonical URLs in your final build. It is strongly recommended that you set this configuration to get the most out of Astro.
Type: string
The base path to deploy to. Astro will use this path as the root for your pages and assets both in development and in production build.
In the example below, astro dev
will start your server at /docs
.
When using this option, all of your static asset imports and URLs should add the base as a prefix. You can access this value via import.meta.env.BASE_URL
.
The value of import.meta.env.BASE_URL
will be determined by your trailingSlash
config, no matter what value you have set for base
.
A trailing slash is always included if trailingSlash: "always"
is set. If trailingSlash: "never"
is set, BASE_URL
will not include a trailing slash, even if base
includes one.
Additionally, Astro will internally manipulate the configured value of config.base
before making it available to integrations. The value of config.base
as read by integrations will also be determined by your trailingSlash
configuration in the same way.
In the example below, the values of import.meta.env.BASE_URL
and config.base
when processed will both be /docs
:
In the example below, the values of import.meta.env.BASE_URL
and config.base
when processed will both be /docs/
:
trailingSlash
Section titled trailingSlashType: 'always' | 'never' | 'ignore'
Default: 'ignore'
Set the route matching behavior of the dev server. Choose from the following options:
'always'
- Only match URLs that include a trailing slash (ex: “/foo/“)'never'
- Never match URLs that include a trailing slash (ex: “/foo”)'ignore'
- Match URLs regardless of whether a trailing ”/” exists
Use this configuration option if your production host has strict handling of how trailing slashes work or do not work.
You can also set this if you prefer to be more strict yourself, so that URLs with or without trailing slashes won’t work during development.

- build.format
redirects
Section titled redirectsType: Record.<string, RedirectConfig>
Default: {}
astro@2.9.0
Specify a mapping of redirects where the key is the route to match and the value is the path to redirect to.
You can redirect both static and dynamic routes, but only to the same kind of route.
For example you cannot have a '/article': '/blog/[...slug]'
redirect.
For statically-generated sites with no adapter installed, this will produce a client redirect using a <meta http-equiv="refresh">
tag and does not support status codes.
When using SSR or with a static adapter in output: static
mode, status codes are supported.
Astro will serve redirected GET requests with a status of 301
and use a status of 308
for any other request method.
You can customize the redirection status code using an object in the redirect config:
output
Section titled outputType: 'static' | 'server'
Default: 'static'
Specifies the output target for builds.
'static'
- Prerender all your pages by default, outputting a completely static site if none of your pages opt out of prerendering.'server'
- Use server-side rendering (SSR) for all pages by default, always outputting a server-rendered site.
See Also:
- adapter
adapter
Section titled adapterType: AstroIntegration
Deploy to your favorite server, serverless, or edge host with build adapters. Import one of our first-party adapters for Netlify, Vercel, and more to engage Astro SSR.
See our Server-side Rendering guide for more on SSR, and our deployment guides for a complete list of hosts.

- output
integrations
Section titled integrationsType: AstroIntegration[]
Extend Astro with custom integrations. Integrations are your one-stop-shop for adding framework support (like Solid.js), new features (like sitemaps), and new libraries (like Partytown).
Read our Integrations Guide for help getting started with Astro Integrations.
Type: string
CLI: --root
Default: "."
(current working directory)
You should only provide this option if you run the astro
CLI commands in a directory other than the project root directory. Usually, this option is provided via the CLI instead of the Astro config file, since Astro needs to know your project root before it can locate your config file.
If you provide a relative path (ex: --root: './my-project'
) Astro will resolve it against your current working directory.
Examples
Section titled ExamplessrcDir
Section titled srcDirType: string
Default: "./src"
Set the directory that Astro will read your site from.
The value can be either an absolute file system path or a path relative to the project root.
publicDir
Section titled publicDirType: string
Default: "./public"
Set the directory for your static assets. Files in this directory are served at /
during dev and copied to your build directory during build. These files are always served or copied as-is, without transform or bundling.
The value can be either an absolute file system path or a path relative to the project root.
outDir
Section titled outDirType: string
Default: "./dist"
Set the directory that astro build
writes your final build to.
The value can be either an absolute file system path or a path relative to the project root.
See Also:
- build.server
cacheDir
Section titled cacheDirType: string
Default: "./node_modules/.astro"
Set the directory for caching build artifacts. Files in this directory will be used in subsequent builds to speed up the build time.
The value can be either an absolute file system path or a path relative to the project root.
compressHTML
Section titled compressHTMLType: boolean
Default: true
This is an option to minify your HTML output and reduce the size of your HTML files.
By default, Astro removes whitespace from your HTML, including line breaks, from .astro
components in a lossless manner.
Some whitespace may be kept as needed to preserve the visual rendering of your HTML. This occurs both in development mode and in the final build.
To disable HTML compression, set compressHTML
to false.
scopedStyleStrategy
Section titled scopedStyleStrategyType: 'where' | 'class' | 'attribute'
Default: 'attribute'
astro@2.4
Specify the strategy used for scoping styles within Astro components. Choose from:
'where'
- Use:where
selectors, causing no specificity increase.'class'
- Use class-based selectors, causing a +1 specificity increase.'attribute'
- Usedata-
attributes, causing a +1 specificity increase.
Using 'class'
is helpful when you want to ensure that element selectors within an Astro component override global style defaults (e.g. from a global stylesheet).
Using 'where'
gives you more control over specificity, but requires that you use higher-specificity selectors, layers, and other tools to control which selectors are applied.
Using 'attribute'
is useful when you are manipulating the class
attribute of elements and need to avoid conflicts between your own styling logic and Astro’s application of styles.
security
Section titled securityType: Record.<"checkOrigin", boolean> | undefined
Default: {checkOrigin: true}
astro@4.9.0
Enables security measures for an Astro website.
These features only exist for pages rendered on demand (SSR) using server
mode or pages that opt out of prerendering in static
mode.
By default, Astro will automatically check that the “origin” header
matches the URL sent by each request in on-demand rendered pages. You can
disable this behavior by setting checkOrigin
to false
:
security.checkOrigin
Section titled security.checkOriginType: boolean
Default: true
astro@4.9.0
Performs a check that the “origin” header, automatically passed by all modern browsers, matches the URL sent by each Request
. This is used to provide Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) protection.
The “origin” check is executed only for pages rendered on demand, and only for the requests POST
, PATCH
, DELETE
and PUT
with
one of the following content-type
headers: 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
, 'multipart/form-data'
, 'text/plain'
.
If the “origin” header doesn’t match the pathname
of the request, Astro will return a 403 status code and will not render the page.
Type: ViteUserConfig
Pass additional configuration options to Vite. Useful when Astro doesn’t support some advanced configuration that you may need.
View the full vite
configuration object documentation on vite.dev.
Examples
Section titled ExamplesBuild Options
Section titled Build Optionsbuild.format
Section titled build.formatType: ('file' | 'directory' | 'preserve')
Default: 'directory'
Control the output file format of each page. This value may be set by an adapter for you.
'file'
: Astro will generate an HTML file named for each page route. (e.g.src/pages/about.astro
andsrc/pages/about/index.astro
both build the file/about.html
)'directory'
: Astro will generate a directory with a nestedindex.html
file for each page. (e.g.src/pages/about.astro
andsrc/pages/about/index.astro
both build the file/about/index.html
)'preserve'
: Astro will generate HTML files exactly as they appear in your source folder. (e.g.src/pages/about.astro
builds/about.html
andsrc/pages/about/index.astro
builds the file/about/index.html
)
Effect on Astro.url
Section titled Effect on Astro.urlSetting build.format
controls what Astro.url
is set to during the build. When it is:
directory
- TheAstro.url.pathname
will include a trailing slash to mimic folder behavior; ie/foo/
.file
- TheAstro.url.pathname
will include.html
; ie/foo.html
.
This means that when you create relative URLs using new URL('./relative', Astro.url)
, you will get consistent behavior between dev and build.
To prevent inconsistencies with trailing slash behaviour in dev, you can restrict the trailingSlash
option to 'always'
or 'never'
depending on your build format:
directory
- SettrailingSlash: 'always'
file
- SettrailingSlash: 'never'
build.client
Section titled build.clientType: string
Default: './client'
Controls the output directory of your client-side CSS and JavaScript when building a website with server-rendered pages.
outDir
controls where the code is built to.
This value is relative to the outDir
.
build.server
Section titled build.serverType: string
Default: './server'
Controls the output directory of server JavaScript when building to SSR.
This value is relative to the outDir
.
build.assets
Section titled build.assetsType: string
Default: '_astro'
astro@2.0.0
Specifies the directory in the build output where Astro-generated assets (bundled JS and CSS for example) should live.
See Also:
- outDir
build.assetsPrefix
Section titled build.assetsPrefixType: string | Record.<string, string>
Default: undefined
astro@2.2.0
Specifies the prefix for Astro-generated asset links. This can be used if assets are served from a different domain than the current site.
This requires uploading the assets in your local ./dist/_astro
folder to a corresponding /_astro/
folder on the remote domain.
To rename the _astro
path, specify a new directory in build.assets
.
To fetch all assets uploaded to the same domain (e.g. https://cdn.example.com/_astro/...
), set assetsPrefix
to the root domain as a string (regardless of your base
configuration):
Added in: astro@4.5.0
You can also pass an object to assetsPrefix
to specify a different domain for each file type.
In this case, a fallback
property is required and will be used by default for any other files.
build.serverEntry
Section titled build.serverEntryType: string
Default: 'entry.mjs'
Specifies the file name of the server entrypoint when building to SSR. This entrypoint is usually dependent on which host you are deploying to and will be set by your adapter for you.
Note that it is recommended that this file ends with .mjs
so that the runtime
detects that the file is a JavaScript module.
build.redirects
Section titled build.redirectsType: boolean
Default: true
astro@2.6.0
Specifies whether redirects will be output to HTML during the build.
This option only applies to output: 'static'
mode; in SSR redirects
are treated the same as all responses.
This option is mostly meant to be used by adapters that have special configuration files for redirects and do not need/want HTML based redirects.
build.inlineStylesheets
Section titled build.inlineStylesheetsType: 'always' | 'auto' | 'never'
Default: auto
astro@2.6.0
Control whether project styles are sent to the browser in a separate css file or inlined into <style>
tags. Choose from the following options:
'always'
- project styles are inlined into<style>
tags'auto'
- only stylesheets smaller thanViteConfig.build.assetsInlineLimit
(default: 4kb) are inlined. Otherwise, project styles are sent in external stylesheets.'never'
- project styles are sent in external stylesheets
build.concurrency
Section titled build.concurrencyType: number
Default: 1
astro@4.16.0
Nuovo
The number of pages to build in parallel.
In most cases, you should not change the default value of 1
.
Use this option only when other attempts to reduce the overall rendering time (e.g. batch or cache long running tasks like fetch calls or data access) are not possible or are insufficient. If the number is set too high, page rendering may slow down due to insufficient memory resources and because JS is single-threaded.
This feature is stable and is not considered experimental. However, this feature is only intended to address difficult performance issues, and breaking changes may occur in a minor release to keep this option as performant as possible. Please check the Astro CHANGELOG for every minor release if you are using this feature.
Server Options
Section titled Server OptionsCustomize the Astro dev server, used by both astro dev
and astro preview
.
To set different configuration based on the command run (“dev”, “preview”) a function can also be passed to this configuration option.
server.host
Section titled server.hostType: string | boolean
Default: false
astro@0.24.0
Set which network IP addresses the server should listen on (i.e. non-localhost IPs).
false
- do not expose on a network IP addresstrue
- listen on all addresses, including LAN and public addresses[custom-address]
- expose on a network IP address at[custom-address]
(ex:192.168.0.1
)
server.port
Section titled server.portType: number
Default: 4321
Set which port the server should listen on.
If the given port is already in use, Astro will automatically try the next available port.
server.open
Section titled server.openType: string | boolean
Default: false
astro@4.1.0
Controls whether the dev server should open in your browser window on startup.
Pass a full URL string (e.g. ”http://example.com”) or a pathname (e.g. “/about”) to specify the URL to open.
server.headers
Section titled server.headersType: OutgoingHttpHeaders
Default: {}
astro@1.7.0
Set custom HTTP response headers to be sent in astro dev
and astro preview
.
Dev Toolbar Options
Section titled Dev Toolbar OptionsdevToolbar.enabled
Section titled devToolbar.enabledType: boolean
Default: true
Whether to enable the Astro Dev Toolbar. This toolbar allows you to inspect your page islands, see helpful audits on performance and accessibility, and more.
This option is scoped to the entire project, to only disable the toolbar for yourself, run npm run astro preferences disable devToolbar
. To disable the toolbar for all your Astro projects, run npm run astro preferences disable devToolbar --global
.
Prefetch Options
Section titled Prefetch OptionsType: boolean | object
Enable prefetching for links on your site to provide faster page transitions.
(Enabled by default on pages using the <ClientRouter />
router. Set prefetch: false
to opt out of this behaviour.)
This configuration automatically adds a prefetch script to every page in the project
giving you access to the data-astro-prefetch
attribute.
Add this attribute to any <a />
link on your page to enable prefetching for that page.
Further customize the default prefetching behavior using the prefetch.defaultStrategy
and prefetch.prefetchAll
options.
See the Prefetch guide for more information.
prefetch.prefetchAll
Section titled prefetch.prefetchAllType: boolean
Enable prefetching for all links, including those without the data-astro-prefetch
attribute.
This value defaults to true
when using the <ClientRouter />
router. Otherwise, the default value is false
.
When set to true
, you can disable prefetching individually by setting data-astro-prefetch="false"
on any individual links.
prefetch.defaultStrategy
Section titled prefetch.defaultStrategyType: 'tap' | 'hover' | 'viewport' | 'load'
Default: 'hover'
The default prefetch strategy to use when the data-astro-prefetch
attribute is set on a link with no value.
'tap'
: Prefetch just before you click on the link.'hover'
: Prefetch when you hover over or focus on the link. (default)'viewport'
: Prefetch as the links enter the viewport.'load'
: Prefetch all links on the page after the page is loaded.
You can override this default value and select a different strategy for any individual link by setting a value on the attribute.
Image Options
Section titled Image Optionsimage.endpoint
Section titled image.endpointType: Object
Default: {route: '/_image', entrypoint: undefined}
astro@3.1.0
Set the endpoint to use for image optimization in dev and SSR. The entrypoint
property can be set to undefined
to use the default image endpoint.
image.service
Section titled image.serviceType: Object
Default: {entrypoint: 'astro/assets/services/sharp', config?: {}}
astro@2.1.0
Set which image service is used for Astro’s assets support.
The value should be an object with an entrypoint for the image service to use and optionally, a config object to pass to the service.
The service entrypoint can be either one of the included services, or a third-party package.
image.service.config.limitInputPixels
Section titled image.service.config.limitInputPixelsType: number | boolean
Default: true
astro@4.1.0
Whether or not to limit the size of images that the Sharp image service will process.
Set false
to bypass the default image size limit for the Sharp image service and process large images.
image.domains
Section titled image.domainsType: Array.<string>
Default: {domains: []}
astro@2.10.10
Defines a list of permitted image source domains for remote image optimization. No other remote images will be optimized by Astro.
This option requires an array of individual domain names as strings. Wildcards are not permitted. Instead, use image.remotePatterns
to define a list of allowed source URL patterns.
image.remotePatterns
Section titled image.remotePatternsType: Array.<RemotePattern>
Default: {remotePatterns: []}
astro@2.10.10
Defines a list of permitted image source URL patterns for remote image optimization.
remotePatterns
can be configured with four properties:
- protocol
- hostname
- port
- pathname
You can use wildcards to define the permitted hostname
and pathname
values as described below. Otherwise, only the exact values provided will be configured:
hostname
:
- Start with ’**.’ to allow all subdomains (‘endsWith’).
- Start with ’*.’ to allow only one level of subdomain.
pathname
:
- End with ’/**’ to allow all sub-routes (‘startsWith’).
- End with ’/*’ to allow only one level of sub-route.
image.experimentalLayout
Section titled image.experimentalLayoutType: ImageLayout
Default: undefined
The default layout type for responsive images. Can be overridden by the layout
prop on the image component.
Requires the experimental.responsiveImages
flag to be enabled.
responsive
- The image will scale to fit the container, maintaining its aspect ratio, but will not exceed the specified dimensions.fixed
- The image will maintain its original dimensions.full-width
- The image will scale to fit the container, maintaining its aspect ratio.
image.experimentalObjectFit
Section titled image.experimentalObjectFitType: ImageFit
Default: "cover"
The default object-fit value for responsive images. Can be overridden by the fit
prop on the image component.
Requires the experimental.responsiveImages
flag to be enabled.
image.experimentalObjectPosition
Section titled image.experimentalObjectPositionType: string
Default: "center"
The default object-position value for responsive images. Can be overridden by the position
prop on the image component.
Requires the experimental.responsiveImages
flag to be enabled.
image.experimentalBreakpoints
Section titled image.experimentalBreakpointsType: Array.<number>
Default: [640, 750, 828, 1080, 1280, 1668, 2048, 2560] | [640, 750, 828, 960, 1080, 1280, 1668, 1920, 2048, 2560, 3200, 3840, 4480, 5120, 6016]
The breakpoints used to generate responsive images. Requires the experimental.responsiveImages
flag to be enabled. The full list is not normally used,
but is filtered according to the source and output size. The defaults used depend on whether a local or remote image service is used. For remote services
the more comprehensive list is used, because only the required sizes are generated. For local services, the list is shorter to reduce the number of images generated.
Markdown Options
Section titled Markdown Optionsmarkdown.shikiConfig
Section titled markdown.shikiConfigType: Partial<ShikiConfig>
Shiki is our default syntax highlighter. You can configure all options via the markdown.shikiConfig
object:

markdown.remarkRehype
Section titled markdown.remarkRehypeType: RemarkRehype
Pass options to remark-rehype.
Type: object
astro@3.5.0
Configures i18n routing and allows you to specify some customization options.
See our guide for more information on internationalization in Astro
i18n.locales
Section titled i18n.localesType: Locales
astro@3.5.0
A list of all locales supported by the website. This is a required field.
Languages can be listed either as individual codes (e.g. ['en', 'es', 'pt-br']
) or mapped to a shared path
of codes (e.g. { path: "english", codes: ["en", "en-US"]}
). These codes will be used to determine the URL structure of your deployed site.
No particular language code format or syntax is enforced, but your project folders containing your content files must match exactly the locales
items in the list. In the case of multiple codes
pointing to a custom URL path prefix, store your content files in a folder with the same name as the path
configured.
i18n.defaultLocale
Section titled i18n.defaultLocaleType: string
astro@3.5.0
The default locale of your website/application, that is one of the specified locales
. This is a required field.
No particular language format or syntax is enforced, but we suggest using lower-case and hyphens as needed (e.g. “es”, “pt-br”) for greatest compatibility.
i18n.fallback
Section titled i18n.fallbackType: Record.<string, string>
astro@3.5.0
The fallback strategy when navigating to pages that do not exist (e.g. a translated page has not been created).
Use this object to declare a fallback locale
route for each language you support. If no fallback is specified, then unavailable pages will return a 404.
Example
Section titled ExampleThe following example configures your content fallback strategy to redirect unavailable pages in /pt-br/
to their es
version, and unavailable pages in /fr/
to their en
version. Unavailable /es/
pages will return a 404.
i18n.routing
Section titled i18n.routingType: Routing
astro@3.7.0
Controls the routing strategy to determine your site URLs. Set this based on your folder/URL path configuration for your default language.
i18n.routing.prefixDefaultLocale
Section titled i18n.routing.prefixDefaultLocaleType: boolean
Default: false
astro@3.7.0
When false
, only non-default languages will display a language prefix.
The defaultLocale
will not show a language prefix and content files do not exist in a localized folder.
URLs will be of the form example.com/[locale]/content/
for all non-default languages, but example.com/content/
for the default locale.
When true
, all URLs will display a language prefix.
URLs will be of the form example.com/[locale]/content/
for every route, including the default language.
Localized folders are used for every language, including the default.
i18n.routing.redirectToDefaultLocale
Section titled i18n.routing.redirectToDefaultLocaleType: boolean
Default: true
astro@4.2.0
Configures whether or not the home URL (/
) generated by src/pages/index.astro
will redirect to /[defaultLocale]
when prefixDefaultLocale: true
is set.
Set redirectToDefaultLocale: false
to disable this automatic redirection at the root of your site:
i18n.routing.fallbackType
Section titled i18n.routing.fallbackTypeType: "redirect" | "rewrite"
Default: "redirect"
astro@4.15.0
When i18n.fallback
is configured to avoid showing a 404 page for missing page routes, this option controls whether to redirect to the fallback page, or to rewrite the fallback page’s content in place.
By default, Astro’s i18n routing creates pages that redirect your visitors to a new destination based on your fallback configuration. The browser will refresh and show the destination address in the URL bar.
When i18n.routing.fallback: "rewrite"
is configured, Astro will create pages that render the contents of the fallback page on the original, requested URL.
With the following configuration, if you have the file src/pages/en/about.astro
but not src/pages/fr/about.astro
, the astro build
command will generate dist/fr/about.html
with the same content as the dist/en/about.html
page.
Your site visitor will see the English version of the page at https://example.com/fr/about/
and will not be redirected.
i18n.routing.manual
Section titled i18n.routing.manualType: string
astro@4.6.0
When this option is enabled, Astro will disable its i18n middleware so that you can implement your own custom logic. No other routing
options (e.g. prefixDefaultLocale
) may be configured with routing: "manual"
.
You will be responsible for writing your own routing logic, or executing Astro’s i18n middleware manually alongside your own.
Type: object
Default: {}
astro@5.0.0
Beta
Configuration options for type-safe environment variables.
See our guide for more information on environment variables in Astro.
env.schema
Section titled env.schemaType: EnvSchema
Default: {}
astro@5.0.0
Beta
An object that uses envField
to define the data type and properties of your environment variables: context
(client or server), access
(public or secret), a default
value to use, and whether or not this environment variable is optional
(defaults to false
).
envField
supports four data types: string, number, enum, and boolean. context
and access
are required properties for all data types. The following shows the complete list of properties available for each data type:
env.validateSecrets
Section titled env.validateSecretsType: boolean
Default: false
astro@5.0.0
Beta
Whether or not to validate secrets on the server when starting the dev server or running a build.
By default, only public variables are validated on the server when starting the dev server or a build, and private variables are validated at runtime only. If enabled, private variables will also be checked on start. This is useful in some continuous integration (CI) pipelines to make sure all your secrets are correctly set before deploying.
